G.O.D.
GRAMS. OUNCES. DOUGH.Born in Harlem and raised in the Bronx, he was no stranger to hard times. Growing up in New York’s poorest borough (section of the Bronx) during the eighties, when crime and drugs were ramped, he had dreams of making it out the hood and becoming an artist. But, as times got harder, and the desire for nice things amplified, those dreams would deteriorate. After witnessing firsthand the effects of drug and what fast money could bring, he would begin the life that imprisoned his brother and captured and eradicated many of his friends.
After relocating in search of greener pastures, he only found himself deeper in a life of transgression. By the age of seventeen he had dropped out of high school and would have the first of many court appearances. Now fully fledged in a life of crime and on his way to becoming a major player in the drug game, he was finally getting a taste of what he always wanted:
THE AMERICAN DREAM.
While hustling on the corner, he would listen to rappers from the neighborhood spit their rhymes. One day he decided to join in. Soon after, that cipher with friends shined a new light on a hidden talent: Rappin. After getting good feedback about his rhymes; he began writing songs with his friends.
Still hustlin’ fulltime, he began pursuing music in his spare time. He spit bars for several independent CEO’S only to get turn down. Not wanting to take no for an answer, he began writing rhymes for a solo mixtape. During the making of the mixtape, he was not able to turn his back on the street life. This caused his future to once again be in jeopardy. The construction of the mixtape would come to a standstill after he caught a case. With the odds stacked against him, and the possibility of a jail time becoming evident. He began to question: Was it all worth it? After weighing his options prison, death, or rappin; he made his decision. It was a well fought battle, and he went on to beat the case.
In 2005, Hustle Muzik Vol.1 was released with his M.O.B. Style Mafia crew riding shotgun. The mixtape gave him a buzz in the street with his distinctive voice and laid back style. This began to draw a comparison to some industry vets. He later went on to host his own Internet radio show titled M.O.B. Style Radio. The show helped him network deeper in the game. Between 2005 and 2006 he appeared on several independent artist projects lending his lyrical skill.
In 2006, he released Hustle Muzik Vol.2 - Back 2 the Benches hosted by DJ Kool Kid -The HOOD Legend. IN 2007 he brought a long time idea to life by starting his own label Gangstatainment Inc. In 2008, he introduced his label to the rap world with the released of Industry Shakedown - The Mixtape Album hosted by Blackwall Streets own DJ L-GEE. This gave him an even bigger buzz and assisted him in becoming a featured artist.
He is now three mixtapes in and counting. With the street life behind him, G.O.D. is FOCUSed with his sights set on making it in the music business. He is here to prove that his skills nor his borough WILL NOT be slept on. The only thing that can stop him NOW is G.O.D.I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
